Priced to sell quickly with unbelievable access to Idaho Springs. Don't miss this unique opportunity to own 18.48 acres of unincorporated Colorado mountain land that borders public land and is minutes from downtown Idaho Springs! This is the closest large parcel off Virginia Canyon Road, offering a rare combination of privacy, stunning views, & immediate access to town. With three distinct potential buildable sites already marked, the property features panoramic views of downtown Idaho Springs and surrounding peaks, plus a more private site nestled in the trees that also has beautiful views. There’s also potential to build near the base for easier access and infrastructure. With the right vision and approvals, this property could potentially be subdivided into multiple county lots or possibly even a city lot — ideal for building multiple spec homes, short term rentals, or a private family retreat compound. Buyer to do their own due diligence. Bordering the brand-new Virginia Canyon Mountain Park, with direct access to hiking and biking trails, this property is also a prime short-term rental opportunity. Just minutes to I-70, under 35 minutes to Denver, & close to world-class skiing, it’s a fantastic location for second homes, vacation rentals, or a long term investment. Paths to some of the potential build sites have been marked. Please note: terrain is steep in areas — buyers must hike at their own risk and be accompanied by a licensed real estate agent. Seller assumes no liability for injuries sustained while viewing or walking the property. Please make sure that proper footwear is used when viewing property. This is truly one of the most unique Colorado land listings in Clear Creek County — with location, scale, & flexibility that are hard to beat.

Best South and West views around. Multiple ideal building spits on this paved access mostly flat, sun drenched gem!. The 4.72 Acre Lakeside Lode was patented in 1881 by Hal Sayr and the area is steeped in a rich mining history. Utility service available. You will marvel at the quiet, private, and natural splendor of this one of a kind property. Only 10 Minutes from Central City and Idaho Springs. Denver is just 30 minutes and Colorado's best Skiing is just minutes away with easy access to I-70. With many activates around the area you will never have an excuse to be board. This property represents a huge bargain compared to land values in other counties. Make this little piece of paradise your very own. More pictures and Drone footage to come.
